Today: Tesla provides quarterly sales immediately after the end of the period, a first that puts the company in line with automaker standards, as West Virginia bans the Palo Alto company's direct-sales approach.

Tesla Motors has avoided conducting business like traditional automakers and paid for it with sales bans that reached a fifth state Friday, but the company has decided to give in on the practice of providing regular sales figures.
